Previous to 2009: * Delica 4 (PE) * Native (PE) * Para-Military (PE) * Rescue 79mm orange (SE) Added in 2009: * Delica 4 G10 (PE) * Delica 4 trainer (e...

Just one small question, and one small observation. Are you certain the blade on your Manix 2 is 3.5"? I ask because blade of the pilot run one I had for testing a couple months back was just only 3 3/8", which would make yours larger. Yes, you are correct that the blade length (measured ...

I have a Manix 2 and a UK drop-point coming, but they're not here yet. Delica 4 (with about three years of carry wear): http://img37.imageshack.u...
